The Bentley Affair

Todd Bentley and his wife have separated in the wake of what the Fresh Fire Board of Directors have called "an unhealthy relationship on an emotional level with a female member of his staff."

From ReligionNewsBlog.com:

J. Lee Grady, editor of Charisma, a magazine for Pentecostals based in Orlando, said Tuesday the news of Bentley’s marital troubles would likely further polarize those following the revival.

“A large segment of the movement has been skeptical from day one. They’re going to see this as a natural progression. Others who have been following Todd are going to be spiritually shipwrecked. We’ve most definitely seen through this revival a lot of people are not grounded in Scripture, so for them, it won’t be an issue,” he said.
